Graphics Cards

[flybine]

with one monitor connected to the graphics card and the other on the motherboard, HDMI Is it possible i can't get windows to detect the second monitor

 i know it works when i connect both to the R9 GPU but i would like to take advantage of both processing units

There would be zero benefit in any way to using one through the motherboard. You should connect both to the same GPU. The only time I would connect to onboard graphics (motherboard) is if you had so many monitors connected you can't connect anymore to the GPU, then I can see using the onboard graphics.
